I Admit it, I am an Author Groupie

My first love was words, my best friends were books...still are. I love nothing better than curling up and escaping with a good book. My choice of genres...paranormal...usually listed as paranormal romance or mystery or whatever. I don't read the genre labels I just read the books.

And then there's the authors...Being a writer myself I know how hard it can be to write and to write well enough that people adore it...well that's got to be something amazing. It is what I strive for. Of course I actually have to write a full length book to even try to get there (so far I've made it to a novella, but not a full length novel yet). Anyway, back to the writers...I love them. I adore them...I love the characters and worlds that they create.

Movie stars are OK, rock stars are beautiful, but I am an author groupie. Authors are my rock stars. I stalk their blogs, surf their websites, wait for new books to be released, pray for ARC copies, and wish to no avail that they would come to Flint for a book signing (no one ever comes to Flint).

That's why I started Fang-tastic Books, to help showcase what I love-the books and their authors. And I am glad others out there love books and authors as much as I do.

My husband calls me a book slut, I totally am. I will do a lot for a book. I am a book slut, an author groupie, a writer web stalker. I should make a sign "Will Work for Books". Of course my husband would probably kill me since he prefers I work for money.

To all my book loving friends out there that feel like I do, there will be authors and giveaways and goodies in the future on Fang-tastic Books that you are going to love. Make sure to drop by and give the authors proper adoration. :-)
